everyone knows after you start FRAPS,you launch your game, then press F9,FRAPS will start recording, and then you press F9 again and FRAPS will save the video to hard disk. i want to implement a feature like above, but there is little difference: i want to let FRAPS recording without press F9 button on the keyboard. so this is the way i am thinking about:run FRAPS first, the launch my game, when i want to start recording, i send FRAPS a "fake" F9 keyboard message... my question is how to implement this feature or is there any better idea to do this? cheers
